...When I was 8, I dreamed of becoming an archaeologist. As a youngster my passion was digging up dirt and touching bones. However through time, my dreams have traveled into a different direction. Today I am 19 years old and I am a determined, driven, ambitious young lady, who is ready to face the world as a corporate lawyer and restaurant owner. It took up until my freshman year to realize that my audaciousness and argumentative persona will be put to use as a lawyer. When I am not busy studying, attending school or working, I enjoy watching Law & Order, Criminal Minds, and CSI:New York. Watching these shows keeps me interested in the idea of becoming a lawyer. Along with pursuing law, I will also like to own and manage a restaurant. Cooking is my second passion. I love the art, culture and everything else that comes with it. Within the next few months, my goal is transfer to a new college; double major in political science and business administration and minor in culinary arts management. After graduating from college, I want to immediately open my own restaurant, then later on attend Georgetown University for my JD in corporate law. This may seem a bit much, However, my drive, family and friends motivates me. All of this and more must be done by my 25th birthday. Nothing is impossible for me. The roads may be rough and I may fall and stumble along the way, I will get back up and continue along my lifes...

...In the wake of global scandals involving kickbacks and accounting fraud, one unlikely country, India, is aiming to set a tone in overhauling its corporate oversight laws. This month, the nation’s upper house of Parliament passed the Companies Bill, 2012, sweeping legislation meant to overhaul auditing, impose stiffer penalties for fraud and create more government oversight of businesses. The lower house had passed the bill last year. Once India’s president, Pranab Mukherjee, signs it into law, it will replace India’s 57-year-old corporate legislation that critics say had failed to keep up with changes in business practices. India, a nation notoriously rife with graft and bribery, was partly motivated to pass the legislation in the wake of an accounting scandal that has been called India’s Enron. In 2009, B. Ramalinga Raju, the chairman of a prominent outsourcing company, Satyam Computer Services, confessed to overstating company assets and earnings by more than $1 billion, and then resigned. The fact that one company could defraud shareholders of such a large sum despite regular audits made painfully obvious the need for greater oversight in corporate India. But some four years after that startling case, little change in corporate laws had taken place until now. The new legislation will affect all companies doing business in India, regardless of their size, structure or ownership, including the estimated 8,000 corporations listed on three national stock exchanges. Yet while...

Discuss the differences between a corporation that is liquidated and one that is dissolved. 2. Analyze how assets are dealt with in both situations. 3. Analyze how shareholders are treated in both situations. Every entrepreneur who starts a business must first decide which form of business organization will be most appropriate for their new endeavor. “Business enterprises customarily take one of three forms: individual proprietorships, partnerships, or limited-liability companies (or corporations)” (Business organization, 2011). In making this decision, entrepreneur’s need to consider a number of factors such as the ease of creation, the liability of the owners, tax considerations, the need for capital, and the business form. Traditionally, entrepreneurs’ have created one of the three major business forms which are the sole proprietorship, the partnership, and the corporation. Most large businesses that employ hundreds or thousands of workers are corporations. Furthermore, a corporation is an artificial being, existing only in state and/or federal law and is neither tangible nor visible. It is a business that has the legal status of an individual but is owned collectively by...
